TITANS 27, DOLPHINS 24 (OT): Tennessee might fall short of making NFL history by rebounding from an 0-6 start to make the playoffs. It won’t be for lack of trying.

Rob Bironas kicked a 46-yard field goal in overtime, and the Titans beat Miami in Nashville on Sunday after blowing an 18-point lead.

Tennessee kept alive faint playoff hopes for another week as Vince Young threw for a career-high three touchdowns and Chris Johnson ran for 104 yards. The Titans (7-7) reached .500 for the first time this year but made it far too interesting by blowing the big lead.

The Dolphins (7-7) also viewed this as an elimination game for their own playoff hopes. They trailed 24-6 in the third quarter before rallying, tying on Ricky Williams’ two-point conversion run with 1:34 left.

FALCONS 10, JETS 7: The Atlanta offense kept stalling in the cold of the Meadowlands until finally busting through New York’s top-ranked defense at the end.

Tony Gonzalez caught a 6-yard touchdown pass from Matt Ryan on a fourth-down play with 1:38 remaining to lift the Falcons to a victory in East Rutherford, N.J.

A day after the Falcons (7-7) were eliminated from playoff contention, they likely also ended the chances for the stunned Jets (7-7), whose three-game winning streak was stopped.

Ryan, starting after missing two games with a toe injury, drove Atlanta downfield for the win at a cold, windy and half-filled Meadowlands. Frustrated Jets fans in the upper deck tossed snow, the remnants of a major snowstorm in the Northeast, and booed loudly after the score.

A week after being accused of quitting by Carolina Panthers defenders, Moss bounced back with five catches for 70 yards and a touchdown in a victory in Orchard Park, N.Y. Tully Banta-Cain had three of New England’s six sacks to anchor a banged-up defense.

CHARGERS 27, BENGALS 24: Nate Kaeding kicked a 52-yard field goal with three seconds left, and playoff-bound San Diego pulled out a dramatic home win over grieving Cincinnati (9-5).

BUCCANEERS 24, SEAHAWKS 7: Rookie Josh Freeman shook off his ninth interception in just over two games to throw two touchdown passes in the second half, rallying Tampa Bay on the road to a win over Seattle (5-9).
